5 Lifestyle Changes that Could Prevent Nearly 80% of Heart Attacks
A recent research study from Sweden’s Karolinska Institute found that five main factors appeared to contribute to whether or not one may be at risk for heart attack:
- A healthy diet
- No smoking
- Being physical active (walking/bicycling more than 40 min/day and exercising more than 1 hour per week)
- Healthy waist circumference (<95 cm)
- Moderate alcohol consumption (10 to 30 g/day)
This study, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in September 2014, was a longitudinal research piece—that is, it followed a group of people in one country (Sweden) for a period of 11 years. At the end of the study, those who had engaged in those five specific healthy lifestyle habits, reduced their risk for developing heart disease by 79%.
